Members Of Parliament Retiringallowances Act   for instance these separatists who come into this House wanting and agreeing with a pension plan. I think it is absurd enough that they are getting a salary, much less asking for a pension plan at a cost to hard working Canadian citizens. I also wonder why it is that the Liberals keep

Excise Tax Act   of money comes from the pockets of hard-working Canadians, who are among the most highly taxed people in the world. It is said that the average middle class Canadian worker in this country in all forms of taxes pays about 63 per cent of their gross income in taxation. In a country

Immigration   and improving the standard of living of every Canadian relies, in part, on keeping a vibrant and dynamic immigration system. The Canadian experience shows that immigrants as well as refugees become some of the best, brightest, most self-motivated and hard working Canadians

The Canada Council   the pockets of hard working Canadians and distributed through the Canada Council. That is right. You do not even have to live in Canada to receive a grant from the Canada Council. No, sir, if you do not like the winners here, no problem. You too can receive $18,000 to live in sunny Los

Employment Insurance Act   on the mantra of job creation, we received our year end Christmas gift: employment insurance. On the second day of Christmas the minister of HRD, having no understanding of the meaning of insurance, gave us two hard-working Canadians who, despite their considerable financial contributions

Department Of Public Works And Government Services Act   this discretion that will really safeguard the public purse. These are tax dollars we are working with. These tax dollars are given to the government by hard working Canadians who want to see their tax dollars spent in a prudent fashion. Let us never forget that the tax dollars are basically

Gasoline Prices  Mr. Speaker, three weeks ago I rose in the House to complain about the gasoline price gouging by the oil companies. This price fixing practice has long been a ploy by the gasoline industry to rob money from the pockets of hard working Canadians. Various individuals and groups

Supply   sport to criticize the Senate. I will have some remarks of my own in respect of the Senate. I have made them in the past. That is fair game. However, there are many hard working Canadians in the Senate and for hon. members opposite to make those remarks is improper, in my view

Liberal Government  , on drug patents, in short on anything that is important to the quality of life for hard working Canadians. If the Liberals who still have an ounce of attachment to their old tradition of building rather than destroying institutions do not stand up to the Fraser Institute interloper

Canada Labour Code  Mr. Speaker, it is a pleasure to take part in the debate on Bill C-35, an act to amend the Canada Labour Code. This amendment speaks to the type of government this is. It is a government that seeks justice, opportunity and recognizes that hard working Canadians need

The Deficit   stood at $42 billion. Through balanced, effective spending cuts, by 1997 we will have reduced the deficit by $33 billion, nearly 80 per cent. What does this all mean for hard working Canadians? It means lower interest rates. It means they are saving almost $500 annually on a $15,000

Finance   which was described by looking through such rosy coloured spectacles is really nothing very much to brag about. This government offers no tax cuts, no relief for all the hard working Canadians who are wondering how to make ends meet. The only thing the government did was to take

The Budget   relieve to take care of that. Only last Friday he imposed yet another $10 billion tax grab on hard working Canadians. Will the minister explain for the benefit of Canadians how this $10 billion CPP tax grab is going to help Canadians keep their jobs, help the 1.5 million Canadians

The Budget   happened in the past. Liberal members pad their own pockets first and then ensure that their way is paid for by higher premiums and higher taxes from ordinary hard working Canadians. This budget is a fudge it budget. It has not told the complete story about what is going

The Budget   is the Liberals' magic cash register. When they need more money for bigger government, bigger bureaucracy, bigger payments and bigger programs they dip into their cash register, the pockets of hard working Canadians. The average Canadian family has seen its disposable household income shrink
